Chapter 181: It Doesn’t Matter to Me Whether You Agree or Not

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Jiang Yining was speechless.

She did not believe in her own character.

Sigh.

“If you do something like this with your grandfather next time, please inform me in advance. Otherwise, I’ll have a heart attack sooner or later,” Jiang Yining said.

“Yes, I understand.”

Despite saying so, he still wouldn’t tell her in advance.

Because he knew her well.

If he told her beforehand, she would never have accepted it.

He wanted to use his wealth to trap her.

Lu Zhi smiled and said, “Let’s go.”

“Mhm.”

During the meal, Gu Zhanqing was arranged to sit on Jiang Yining’s right while Lu Zhi sat on her left.

Jiang Yining could feel the endless cold aura emanating from Gu Zhanqing and knew that he was very unhappy today.

However, the unhappier he was, the happier she would be.

Jiang Yining didn’t even look at him as she rambled on and on with Lu Zhi while smiling.

She kept putting food into his bowl.

Lu Zhi was smart enough to know why she was acting so strangely.

He cooperated with her.

Both of them looked very affectionate to outsiders as they were so in tune with each other.

Gu Zhanqing took a few bites and stopped eating.

After the banquet ended, he called Yining in front of everyone and said, “Yining, I have a few words to say to you.”

“Oh, what is it?”

“Follow me.”

Gu Zhanqing knew very well that she would not take the initiative to leave with him.

Therefore, he did not give her a chance to speak again.

He walked out.

Jiang Yining couldn’t embarrass him in front of so many people.

She could only follow him out.

Walking out of the living room, Gu Zhanqing stopped acting and looked at her coldly. He asked, “The Lu family treats you sincerely. Don’t you feel guilty towards them?”

“No.” Jiang Yining leaned against the stone pillar and looked at him indifferently. “In your eyes, I might not be worthy of the kindness others have shown me. However, I am a treasure to others. 1 am worthy of those treatments. Gu Zhanqing, do you think it’s your problem or other people’s problem?”

“Don’t change the topic. You don’t love Lu Zhi at all. Lying to him like this will only upset him.”

“Are you a mind reader?” Jiang Yining sneered. “How do you know that 1 don’t love Lu Zhi? 1 love him so much that I can’t live without him…”

“I’ve already learned from others that Lu Zhi married you because you threatened him with his life.” Gu Zhanqing interrupted her mercilessly. “He’s acting lovey-dovey with you now to save his own life, isn’t it? Tell me, if I find someone else to save his life, will he still dote on you like he does now?”

The atmosphere instantly froze.

Jiang Yining stared at him expressionlessly.

After a moment, she said softly.

“You’ll never find anyone who can save his life.”

She was very confident in her medical skills.

She was the only one in the world who could save him.

“Look, the first thing you denied was this, not that he was threatened by you. At the end of the day, you’re not sure if he loves you or not.” Gu Zhanqing’s words were sharp.

Only then did Jiang Yining realize that she had fallen into his trap.

He could not find a second person who could save Lu Zhi. He had said that on purpose to trick her.

“Old Master Lu treats you as the granddaughter-in-law of the Lu family and is willing to give you 8% of the shares. Do you know what this 8% of shares means? Even his own son might not get this much! Jiang Yining, not only are you deceiving yourself and ruining your happiness for the rest of your life, but you’re also hurting an old man.” Gu Zhanqing had always known where to get the most impactful strike. “If you have a conscience, you should correct your mistake by canceling the engagement.”

Jiang Yining’s lips moved as if she wanted to say something.

However, the words were stuck in her throat as the image of Old Master Lu’s cheerful appearance flashed across her mind.

She was unable to speak.

At this moment, a tall figure came out of the living room and put his arm around her shoulders, pulling her into an embrace domineeringly.

Before she could come back to her senses, the man leaned over and kissed her deeply on her lips.

Lu Zhi’s handsome face was clearly reflected in Jiang Yining’s black eyes.

Her heart instantly stopped beating.

A second later, her heart was beating crazily.

The corners of Lu Zhi’s lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile. He straightened his body and looked sideways at Gu Zhanqing. “Uncle Gu, 1 heard everything you said earlier. Now, let me explain. 1 indeed wanted Yining to save my life when 1 first met her. However, after interacting with her, 1 found that she is outstanding and attractive in all aspects, and I was gradually fascinated by her.”

“Until today, 1 will only marry her and no one else. Therefore, the questions you raised are not problems in my opinion.”

“Did you hear me clearly?”

He enunciated the last sentence very clearly.

Every word carried a sharp and aggressive intent.

The way he looked at Gu Zhanqing was also extremely unfriendly.

Gu Zhanqing paused for a while and smiled. “I don’t agree to your marriage.”

“Oh, 1 already knew. Unfortunately, it doesn’t matter to me whether you agree or not.” Lu Zhi had a fake smile. “I don’t care how you torture me as long as you don’t hurt my wife. However, if you have tricks up your sleeve and you try to ruin our marriage, I will deal with you.”

The atmosphere between the two of them became intense after they finally shed all pretenses of cordiality.

One could visualize the crackling flames in the air!

Jiang Yining was thrilled when she saw that Gu Zhanqing was rendered speechless by Lu Zhi.

She raised her chin slightly and smiled at Gu Zhanqing.

“Did you hear that? This is A-City, the Lu family’s territory. Don’t stir up trouble.”

Gu Zhanqing stared at her for a long time and replied, “You will regret it.”

“The only thing I regret in my life is knowing you.”

Jiang Yining said coldly.

When Gu Zhanqing heard this, he left without looking back.

He couldn’t even be bothered with the people from the Lu family.

Jiang Yining didn’t bother to make him stay. He could leave if he wanted to!

No one welcomed him from the start!

However, while she was happy, she was also worried about how to explain it to the Lu family.

Lu Zhi guessed her thoughts and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll explain it to Grandpa.”

At this moment, only the two of them were left. Jiang Yining couldn’t help but think of what had just happened, and her face quickly burned.

“Mhm.”

She lowered her eyes, broke free of his hand, and walked into the living room.

Lu Zhi stood rooted to the ground, and his cold expression was gradually replaced with a smile.

Gu Zhanqing left the Lu family’s old residence and got into the car. He was about to instruct the driver to leave.

However, a person suddenly barged out and blocked their path.

The driver honked his horn, signaling the girl to leave.

However, not only did the other party not leave, but she went to where Gu Zhanqing was seated and knocked on the car window. “Mr. Gu, I have something to tell you.”

Gu Zhanqing slowly lowered the car window.

“I’m Chen Kexin. My mother is the former housekeeper of the Lu family and Lu Zhi’s wet nurse.” Chen Kexin panted heavily, saying, “I heard everything you said to Jiang Yining just now. Didn’t you want to stop her from marrying Lu Zhi? I can help you.”

Gu Zhanqing chuckled and said, “Get in the car and we’ll chat.”

“Alright.”

Chen Kexin opened the car door and got in.

The driver started the car and drove away from the Lu family’s old residence..
